    The real boxing understands what Mosley talks about.
    Its not just the roll its other twists and turns, the feet position.
    With Mayweather against an undersized but great fighter like Marquez, his height and reach were a major reason why Marquez could'nt get anything going.
    When Marquez would find the angle to get off with Mayweather shoulder rolling, Mayweather would take a long step back, and even with Mayweather unable to angle out, he was so out of reach from Marquez who has the much shorter arms and legs.

    Mayweather's advantages can be nullified, but it would take a fighter with real physical advantages. Height and reach and or a significant strenghth advantage along with real skill.
    Mayweather just has'nt been facing those fighters to be tested.
    I've always said that there is a reason why Mayweather retired when Margarito and Paul Williams were atop the Welterweight division.

    I'm not going to say anything in reference to p dub because I like him and out of respect for his current situaion, but Margarito, had height and reach, but his skills were a joke. One of the the slowest and easiest to hit fighters ever. He just had an incredible beard and could wear down lesser fighters or those with stamina issues, but he would've been nothing more than mitt workout for Floyd.

    Didn't read the article but it's pretty obvious that it's not just the shoulder roll other wise everybody would just do the shoulder roll and be nearly impossible to hit.

    Floyd has some of the best defenses in boxing and it's called ducking, dodging, vacation, losing his urge to fight, we not fighting to see who the best is, you live to far to fight, my health come first, who are you. You can't hit what's not there.

    margo doesnt load (no pun intended), so there is no punch to roll. he would be touching floyd all thru out 12 rounds.

    he has granite chin and with pedjr featherfisted attack, margo could basically spend all his energy purely on offense.

    look what happened to pac after 12 rounds with margo and pac has the power to derail margo in his tracks.

    it would be a close fight and if pedjr wins, he would be beaten up as well.

    some of floyds haters think all he does is the shoulder roll and thats why they claim certain south paws ( paq- lara ) would beat him which is laughable. i always tell them thats only ONE aspect of his defense.. floyd has a more accurate offense against south paws and he attacks more

    There are a couple posters on here that claim thats all he does, its really no used trying to explain anything boxing related to them because thet proves how little they know and confirms my opinion that they truly havent a clue what their eyes are seeing in the ring.

    even coming from ssm (future hos) they will still deny it and say his shoulder roll won work ..

    true story

    LOL, the thought of Margo being a real threat is a joke. Floyd could easily step into Margo's looping punches and eat him up on the inside or counter him all night. Floyd has the footwork, speed and Ring IQ to make Margo look like a fool. Only thing Margo ever had for him was a chin and loaded gloves

    true marg doesnt load up at all, he loads his gloves and only knows how to throw arm punches and is still one of the slowest WW title holders ever.

    floyd would have put more of a beating on marg than gatti..

    anyone that says marg had any chance at all is not worth discussing boxing with. talking even a 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 trillionth chance is way too much.

    and floyd would have whooped him if arum wasnt such a greedy scum. he got the same to fight a better real WW champion in Baldi.

    and want to hear a fact, Arum didnt really wan that fight, he wanted to keep marg away so he could use him as a look good opponent for a future TR caash cow.

    want to hear the fact that disputes ANY and ALL floyd ducking him claim.
    only way arum was going to make or let the ifght happen was if he got future options on floyd, he floyd bout out his contract and you want him to sign back with arum for a marg with no titles and no good wins indstead for fighting the real WW champ in baldi for close to the same $$$.

    he actually gor a little more from the baldi fight.
    so enough with the BS about anyone ducking marg, the dude always totally and utterly sucked
